DAVID’S PRAYER TO GOD:
- Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer. (v. 1)
- From the ends of the earth, I call to you, I call as my hear grows faith; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. (v. 2)
- I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. (v. 4)
DAVID’S CONFIDENCE IN GOD:
- For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. (v. 3)
- For you have heard my vows, O God; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. (v. 5)

“May he be enthroned in God’s presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him.” (v. 7)
THOUGHTS:
One thing we can learn from David is to praise God both in good and difficult times of our lives. Find something to praise God each day so that our hearts may be elevated from daily distractions to lasting confidence.
